Good quality sound
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use it for tv listening so I am not looking for headphones of audiophile quality, just clear dialogue. Sound quality is great so it meets my needs. A little pricy so I hope the plastic holds up and does not start breaking like my last pair (a different brand).

Great headset
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This headset was a game changer for me. I love using them while traveling. They pretty much block out any unwanted noise. The sound is great. The sticker price is up there but it's worth it to me.

Not worth the price.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The noise canceling is very good but if you already own the WH-1000XM3 the upgrade it not worth it. The XM3 sound way better and feel better made.

Its worth it
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you are having second thoughts about buying these headphones then you need to read this review. Go ahead and buy it! I cross shopped it against its Bose and Apple counterparts, It's definitely the winner due to its form, sound quality and weight. It just happens to be the most beautiful of all the 3 too but aesthetics can be a bit subjective.
